“Suspected blockage”

@spacebrandonb God has laid out the universe like Christmas presents for his children.

I’m not asking you, I’m telling you. Take a moment and listen to this 81 second response from Victor Glover after being asked if he had any thoughts leading up to Easter. I don’t quite think it can be overstated how perfect this crew is for the job.

Rise of Artemis II 📽️ Me for @TLPN_Official

Good morning, world! 🌎 We have spectacular new high-resolution images of our home planet, all of us looking back through the Orion capsule window at our Artemis II astronauts as they continue their journey to the Moon.

This is literally cinema!! Aerial view of the Artemis II launch. You can see the launcher roll and pitch. 📷 : @NASA

Lunar Permanence will require using resources on the Moon rather than hauling them from Earth. Our in-situ resource utilization system extracts oxygen from lunar regolith to create breathable air for astronauts and propellant for refueling landers and fuel cells. It also produces iron, aluminum, silicon, construction materials, and even solar power systems. The materials for a Moon base are produced right where they’re needed, and at much lower cost than being brought from Earth.

@MountsOwen I did not know that. I know the company went bankrupt and that makes servicing them kind of difficult

@Space_Strategy They decided not to use them a while back.

Where was the Canoo for Artemis II?

The first settlers of the Moon:

These stunning images were captured by Charlie Duke aboard the Apollo 16 rover using a 16mm film DAC camera. They capture John Young's drive from Station 11 to Station 13.
